Via the Create Digital Noise forums, Japanese electronic artist Cornelius (Keigo Oyamada) has some terrific videos from director Koichiro Tsujikawa. Tsujikawa has not surprisingly racked up some awards for his work over the last few years. Via Getty Images:
A highly regarded and inventive director, Koichiro Tsujikawa is a self-taught filmmaker whose reputation as an artist and designer is what initially led him to film. Most recently, Tsujikawa won best music video of 2003 at RESFEST’s Audience Music Choice Awards for “Drop (Do it Again)” featuring music by Cornelius.
And he’s an After Effects user. Okay, not terribly enlightening. More enlightening: watching the videos.
Getty Images also features his 2003 winner Eyes, plus a making of featurette.
Cornelius is stateside; the music is equally focused and lovely. I hope to catch the act on the NYC stop.
